Deficits in substance P mRNA levels in the CeA are inversely associated with alcohol-motivated responding.

30 Oct 2009 In the present study, in vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to determine the relationship between innate substance P (SP) levels and alcohol-motivated behavior in alcohol-preferring (P) and nonpreferring (NP) rat lines. In Experiment 1, in ... Read more...

Informed consent recall and comprehension in orthodontics: traditional vs improved readability and processability methods.

29 Sep 2009 INTRODUCTION: Low general and health literacy in the United States means informed consent documents are not well understood by most adults. Methods to improve recall and comprehension of informed consent have not been tested in orthodontics. The ... Read more...

The structural integrity of an amygdala-prefrontal pathway predicts trait anxiety.

14 Sep 2009 Here, we used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and showed that the strength of an axonal pathway identified between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex predicted individual differences in trait anxiety. A functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) ... Read more...
